Post-Passover pass-out? Not a Chance!
We are making this a Post-Passover with a purpose! It’s time to get back to business, and not business-as-usual.
Businesswoman and international women’s mentor Edie Berg is back on the show, this time to discuss qualities and behaviors that are essential to successful professionals. You can be part of the Jewish Women’s leadership community NOW by checking out the “Strong Jewish Women’s Summit,” link below.
Sacha Gorelik is also on hand to share her unique behind-the-scenes true story of how she manages to run her online Jewish Art boutique, the Sabra Patch.
And as we reintroduce all of those “leavened” foods into our kitchens, Brynie Greisman from Mishpacha magazine’s “Family Table” department has healthy and delicious recipes which mark the return of grains and flour.
